LXIX. Zlib Compression Functions
This module uses the functions of zlib by Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler to
transparently read and write gzip (.gz) compressed files. You have
to use a zlib version >= 1.0.9 with this module.
This module contains versions of most of the filesystem functions which work
with gzip-compressed files (and uncompressed files, too, but not
with sockets).
Opens a temporary file and writes a test string to it, then it
prints out the content of this file twice.
Example 1. Small Zlib Example
<?php
$filename = tempnam ('/tmp', 'zlibtest').'.gz';
print "<html>\n<head></head>\n<body>\n<pre>\n";
$s = "Only a test, test, test, test, test, test, test, test!\n";
// open file for writing with maximum compression
$zp = gzopen($filename, "w9");
// write string to file
gzwrite($zp, $s);
// close file
gzclose($zp);
// open file for reading
$zp = gzopen($filename, "r");
// read 3 char
print gzread($zp, 3);
// output until end of the file and close it.
gzpassthru($zp);
print "\n";
// open file and print content (the 2nd time).
if (readgzfile($filename) != strlen($s)) {
echo "Error with zlib functions!";
}
unlink($filename);
print "</pre>\n</h1></body>\n</html>\n";
?>
